that Christ came to teach love to man
as we'll as love to God. This is quite
true, but he taught love to the brethren
because we are children of i common
Father. Christianity is distinctively
the religion that reaches men through
God. There is not the least danger,
in the present temper, that we shall
neglect benevolences, or teach a Chris
tianity whose only end is personal sal
walton. Neither counsel nor warning
is needed in that direction; but there is
some danger that we shall forget the
5Godward side of religion. We search
eagerly for new and better methods of
helping our brother, and we think that
excuses us from any cultivation of our
own spiritual relations or those of the
church. Let us do the one, but do not
let us leave that great other undone.
The modern fashion of building the
editice is no doubt somewhat RESPONSE
bic for this result. We have clustered
under the church roof as many offices
as a monastery of the middle ages, and
like those institutions, the chief is the
refectory! A leading religious organ
has just delivered it's say with great
freedom on the development of the
kitchen as a religious force, and as
serts that as the kitchen goes up the
spirituality goes down. This may OF
may not prove true. It is too early to
decide with certainty. But it is not
impossible that the decline of the spirit
OF worship, so much deplored, has
something to do with the aims of a
modern church. If it's first aim is to
make its members work, and to teach
them to enter into the wide interests of
the world, then doubtless the sociable is
more valuable than the prayer meeting,
and the church cannot be better used
than for public meetings, and lectures,
and gathering of general interest. But
if it has higher purpose, if it stands
for our relation to the supernatural,a and
all it's activity is but means of draw
ing men into a higher life as we'll as a
better, we must recognise that purpose
and seek to promote it. There is an
acknowledged need of cultivating the
purely religious element more than we
have been doing, and it may not be
amiss to begin by a new spirit of rev.
erence in the house of God, an outward
devotion which shall at once express
and cultivate the inward and spiritual
grace.

Love Among the Roses.

Boston Traveller, Said a. florist the
other day: s.Last spring i used to
notice couple going by here-a fine,
manly young fellow and q girl pretty
and dainty, with lovely brown hair and
dark-blue eyes. They didn't know
each other, but when the young man
went to business the girl was sure to be
somewhere around where she could see
him. Shelived ri ght around the corner.
and she used to come in here and pre-
tend to be examining the flowers as he
passed. Then she would look up and
watch him as he went down the street.
One day as he went by she looked up
and said to me: %, what a funny hat,
and then, carelessly, as she began pick
ing among the flowers: Il wonder
who he is came very near laughing,
for the previous day the young fellow
had been in to ask me who she was and
had sent her some flowers. About a
a week afterward she came in with a
friend, and I heard her telling the
friend how somebody had been sending
her flowers every morning, and she did
wish she could find out who it was.
"Well, the best part of it all came
| afterward. One morning he came in as
usual, and the gardener took him back
into the conservatory. While he was
there the girl entered and stood near
the counter looking toward the window.
Presently he returned. and, as he start
ed for the door briskly, he said: We'll,
send these flowers as usual up to No.
24-street. Neither knew the other
was near, and hearing the number of
her house mentioned she turned around
and they met face to face. Well, I never
saw such an embarrassed couple in all
my days. She had big Jacqueminot
near her face, and it would have been
hard to tell which was redder, the rose
or her cheeks. She turned to the flow
ers and he PASSED out. They didn't
come any more, but not long ago l saw
them going by together. They both
looked in, and when they saw me he
laughed and she blushed.'' i

Z Wouldn't Do at all.

An amusing story is told me of the adj
ventures of lady in search ofa servant,
says the Brooklyn Citizen. She went
to an intelligence-office, although she
might have known that the more aris-
toeratic kind of servants are not usually
to- be found in such places, which are
regarded as "way down" and quite low,
fitTonlyto be patronized by "greenhorns''
and ''rounders." However, she went
to- one, and, having been offered like
" young woman, found her qualifca-
tions fairly satisfactory. But the girl
turned interviewer Immediately and
put the usual questions, which are the
stock in trade of comic papers:
Sand do you keep a man to put out
the ashes?'' + -.
The lady was not surprised, of course,
but She saw that the independent and
particular Abigail wasn't going to suit
after all. *&:.g :>.zs r...
%, no; my husband vii! do all that
for you,' she answered, with a mis-
chieveous twinkle in her eye and an
internal smile at the thought that her
husband could be so complacent.
The girl proceeded with her cross
examination, and was accommodated
at every point. 1t looked like an ex-
ceIent place, and she was ready for an
engagement. But the lady suddenly
asked:
iDo you singh
The girl was little mystifed, but,
surprising that the question was intend
ed TO draw her out on the question of
her cheerfulness at work, she answered
that she did, and was very fond OF
doing so.
"And do you play the piano?.'
This was a poser worse than the
other. She had, of course, to admit
that her early education had been
wholly neglected in the matter of this
accomplishment.
30, then, you won't do at all, for
want a girl who can entertain my
friends in the parlor while am at
work in the kitchen. =

PrOht-Sharing.

The great soap manufacturing firm
of Proctor & Gamble, of Cincinnati.
have entered into an agreement with
their employees by which the latter are
to share in the profits of the business
in addition to their wages. This action
was voluntary on the part of the firm
and without solicitation on the part of
the employees. The EVENING Posi- of
that city refers to the new departure as
follows:
ployes, the city of Cincinnati and the toifers
of the whole world are to be congratulated
upon the Inauguration by the firm above
mentioned of practicable and mutually
beneficial scheme of proftsharing, which
includes all the small army of employees of
this great soap-making firm.
Proctor & Gamble are to be congratulated
because they have bound their employees to
their interest: because they have sweetened
their own residue of profit by the conscious
ness that they receive it into unenvied pos
session; because they have the conscious
ness that they are not only helping to clean
up the world Of mankind, but also contrib
uting to the cheerful and hopeful solution Of
the great problem of profit distribution;
and because every lover of his race, as he
uses cake of Ivory soap, will give an ap-
proving thought to the firm which has
Joined hands with its employees in the profit
of its production.
The employees are to be congratulated, be-
cause, with no responsibility for the losses
OF the enterprise and no capital at stake,
they will first surely get their wages, and
will thereafter get suitable share in the
profits OF the undertaking.
The city of Cincinnati is to be congratu-
lated, because it is to have an opportunity
to witness the practical operation and re-
suits OF prohtrsharing on very large scale;
because the example, right at home, is like
~ to be followed by many, if not most,
other Industrial establishments of the city,
and because it augurs the introduction Of
a happier feeling on the part of the manual
laborers OF the city, whose protection aud
comfort should be the city's first care.
The toilers of the whole world are to be
congratulated because this example shows
that the old heather doctrine of 'tlet alone"
is being demolished, and that an era Of
mutually and fair dealing is at hand.
1t is long since the papers of Cincinnati
have been able to chronicle so pleasant an
item Of local news. It is better to share
till we die, and then bequeath them to the
public; and infinitely better than to trans
NIT them unearned to our family descen-
dants. i

Saddle and Bride Thieves.

Sheriff Lewis requests the HERALD
to say that Mr.. Lewis, who had his
horse stolen in front of the court
house last Friday, can get the animal
by calling on the sheriff. The horse,
however, is minus saddle and bride.
Mr., w. Cullen, deputy tax collector,
had his horse stolen also last Friday.
The horse was found, but without sad
die and bride.
Another gentleman had his horse
taken on Friday, which he recovered,
minus saddle and bride.
1t is evident that there are saddle
and bride thieves abroad. Marshal
Arnold has n sorrel horse also, which
was taken about the same time, but
there was no saddle or bride. The
supposition is that these horses are
taken from the hitching posts, stripped
of their saddles and brides and turned
loose.
